arXiv:2606. 19697v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The increasing popularity of \emph{reasoning} models -- language models that output a series of reasoning or thought tokens before producing an answer -- is justified, in part, by theoretical results showing that chain-of-thought (CoT) transformers can simulate Turing machines, and thus perform arbitrary computation.
arXiv:2603. 03612v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The community is increasingly exploring linear RNNs (LRNNs) as language models, motivated by their expressive power and parallelizability.
arXiv:2605. 18079v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Existing expressivity results for transformers typically rely on hardmax attention, high precision, and other architectural modifications that disconnect them from the models used in practice.
arXiv:2604. 25800v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Chain-of-Thought (CoT) has been shown to empirically improve Transformers' performance, and theoretically increase their expressivity to Turing completeness.
arXiv:2604. 14501v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study how depth, finite precision, state dimension, and chain-of-thought (CoT) affect the expressive power of multi-layer state-space models (SSMs).
Modern large language models - transformers and diffusion language models - are built around two canonical algorithmic tasks: prediction and generation. We prove unconditional separations between low-depth quantum computation and the corresponding bounded-resource classical language-model architectures in both regimes.
arXiv:2609.15160v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Looped Transformers have recently demonstrated strong performance in both reasoning and language tasks by reusing a shared set of parameters across mul...
arXiv:2608. 03962v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern large language models - transformers and diffusion language models - are built around two canonical algorithmic tasks: prediction and generation.
arXiv:2606. 07713v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The attention mechanism is the dominant computational bottleneck in modern transformer-based AI.
arXiv:2603.21676v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Standard Transformers have a fixed computational depth, limiting their ability to generalize to tasks that require variable-depth reasoning....
arXiv:2607. 10034v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) store factual knowledge in their parameters.
arXiv:2505. 12992v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Inference-time scaling techniques have significantly bolstered the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs) by harnessing additional computational effort at inference without retraining.
arXiv:2607. 07026v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Constrained decoding is essential for serving LLMs, ensuring that generated outputs follow specific structures such as JSON schema-formatted function calls.
